REGULATIONS

Vol. 31 Iss. 12 - February 09, 2015

REGISTRAR'S NOTICE: The State Water Control Board is claiming an exemption from Article 2 of the Administrative Process Act pursuant to the second enactment of Chapter 202 of the 2014 Acts of Assembly, which provides that all total maximum daily load wasteload allocations adopted or approved by the State Water Control Board prior to July 1, 2014, shall be listed in the Water Quality Management Planning Regulation (9VAC25-720) by the State Water Control Board; such action to amend the Water Quality Management Planning Regulation shall be exempt from Article 2 (§ 2.2-4006 et seq.) of the Administrative Process Act and not subject to judicial review. This required listing shall not be construed to preclude the State Water Control Board from subsequently amending or repealing the listed wasteload allocations or to affect their substantive validity. Total maximum daily load wasteload allocations subject to the cooperative solution negotiated for mining operations that were not set forth in the Water Quality Management Planning Regulation (9VAC25-720) prior to July 1, 2014, are excluded from this listing process.

Chapter 202 of the 2014 Acts of Assembly requires that a comprehensive listing of all total maximum daily load wasteload allocations (WLAs) adopted or approved by the State Water Control Board prior to July 1, 2014, be set forth in the Water Quality Management Planning Regulation (9VAC25-720). Therefore, this regulatory action adds WLAs to the various river basin sections of the regulation to comply with Chapter 202 of the 2014 Acts of Assembly.

The purpose of this regulation is to list by major river basin the following: EPA-approved and board-adoptedboard-adopted total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) and theload (TMDL) wasteload allocations (WLAs), stream segment classifications, and effluent limitations including water quality based effluent limitations, and waste load allocations contained in the existing water quality management plans (WQMPs). Additional information is provided in the footnotes as noted in 9VAC25-720-50 through 9VAC25-720-130.

Notes:1The total WLA can be increased prior to modification provided that DEQ tracks these changes for bacteria TMDLs where the permit is consistent with water quality standards for bacteria.

2There were no point source dischargers in the modeled TMDL area.

B. Non-TMDL waste loadwasteload allocations.

If plant is not certified to operate at 4.6 MGD design flow capacity by December 31, 2010, the WLAs will decrease to TN = 36,547 lbs/yr; TP = 2,193 lbs/yr, based on a design flow capacity of 4.0 MGD.

(7)7Dale Service Corp.-Section 8 WWTF: waste loadwasteload allocations (WLAs) based on a design flow capacity of 4.6 million gallons per day (MGD). If plant is not certified to operate at 4.6 MGD design flow capacity by December 31, 2010, the WLAs will decrease to TN = 36,547 lbs/yr; TP = 2,193 lbs/yr, based on a design flow capacity of 4.0 MGD.

(8)8Parkins Mill STP: waste loadwasteload allocations (WLAs) based on a design flow capacity of 5.0 million gallons per day (MGD). If plant is not certified to operate at 5.0 MGD design flow capacity by December 31, 2010, the WLAs will decrease to TN = 36,547 lbs/yr; TP = 2,741 lbs/yr, based on a design flow capacity of 3.0 MGD.

(9)9Merck-Stonewall – (a) these waste loadwasteload allocations will be subject to further consideration, consistent with the Chesapeake Bay TMDL, as it may be amended, and possible reduction upon "full-scale" results showing the optimal treatment capability of the 4-stage Bardenpho technology at this facility consistent with the level of effort by other dischargers in the region. The "full scale" evaluation will be completed by December 31, 2011, and the results submitted to DEQ for review and subsequent board action; (b) in any year when credits are available after all other exchanges within the Shenandoah-Potomac River Basin are completed in accordance with § 62.1-44.19:18 of the Code of Virginia, Merck shall acquire credits for total nitrogen discharged in excess of 14,619 lbs/yr and total phosphorus discharged in excess of 1,096 lbs/yr; and (c) the allocations are not transferable and compliance credits are only generated if discharged loads are less than the loads identified in clause (b).

(10)10Opequon WRF: (a) the TN WLA is derived based on 3 mg/l of TN and 12.6 MGD; (b) the TN WLA includes an additional allocation for TN in the amount of 6,729 lbs/yr by means of a landfill leachate consolidation and treatment project; and (c) the TP WLA is derived based on 0.3 mg/l of TP and 12.6 MGD.
